I decided to give Windows 11 a go on my Samsung Galaxy Book Pro. So far its okay. Just feels like a re-skinned Windows 10. Should of really been called Windows 10.1 or something to be honest. It works I just wish there was some serious competition for Microsoft.

There is. Their biggest current competitor is their own Windows 10.

If someone did not use reason to reach their conclusion in the first place, you cannot use reason to convince them otherwise.

I run Arch on my gaming PC, Debian Stable on my personal laptop and my server, and Ubuntu on my school/normie laptop. The downstairs general use computer is running Debian Stable with a nicely themed and easy MATE setup. 

 

The only Windows computers in the house are two XP towers that are 2 decades old. 

 

The only Mac in the house is my Power Mac G4 dual booted with OS 9.2.2 and OSX 10.4. 

 

I would really like to get another old computer to play with Haiku on. Stand alone, it's one of my favorite OSes and I'm excited for it to hit stable and be fully featured.

macOS on my Mac, Ubuntu Server on my vm, and Raspberry Pi OS on my Raspberry Pi.

 

I've used a lot of operating systems over the years, and these 3 are my favourites.

Neither one of them look or behave anything alike. Haiku is a FOSS reverse engineered OS of BeOS from Be Inc(defunct). Raspbian is based off of Debian for the Raspberry Pi.
